Due to the recent and unexpected closure of Baker & Taylor, the Boundless app that hosts the eRead Illinois collection is being discontinued. While a transition of this size would typically take months, we’re moving quickly to ensure patrons experience minimal interruption.
In the coming weeks, the entire eRead Illinois collection will be migrated to a new and sustainable platform — The Palace Project app, managed by Lyrasis. More details will be shared soon to help you make a smooth transition
